The Darter catching these fish was an expert we saw him catch at least 12 fish in about 10 minutes, must have been hungry. He was so quick that most of the times we weren't fast enough to get a photo before he swallowed the catch and then down to hunt another one.

Thanks Sam. Yes we saw a pair of Whistling Kites flying around together, one was eating a catch as it effortlessly soared they were both very high so not the best photos. Also saw a Black shouldered Kite in a tree seen from Bittern hide which has been listed sighting 4252539 on CNM. Always love seeing the raptors, well pretty much goes for anything though. Hope you are seeing lots on your visits. Good luck.
